Plastic EcoTough Card Printing
We can print Eco Tough Cards for any type of business of use complete with a range of optional extras if required like sequential numbering, barcodes, QR codes, etc.
The majority of our work is from repeat customers as our quality, customer service and prices are second to none.
All our EcoTough Cards are printed in England and are very high quality and just 360 microns thick (0.36mm).
You will find cheaper Cards on the internet but they will be low quality imports from China (usually with long 10 to 15 working day turnaround times)
However, you will probably not be aware of this, as companies who outsource production to China don't like to advertise that the Cards are printed thousands of miles away and that they have no control over the manufacturing process and the quality will be ... well, as you would expect for a cheap import from China!
Our EcoTough Cards are printed in vibrant full colour (CMYK) on each side for no extra cost.
We can help you by creating your artwork for you free of charge, or if you are supplying your own artwork we can check it for technical issues and fix them free of charge so they will print perfectly.

EcoTough Card Information
In recent years, the shift towards sustainable and environmentally friendly products has gained significant momentum, extending to various industries including the production of cards. Traditional cards, such as credit cards, loyalty cards, and gift cards, have predominantly been manufactured from Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) plastic, a material known for its durability and flexibility. However, PVC plastic poses considerable environmental challenges, primarily due to its non-biodegradable nature and the toxic chemicals released during its production and disposal. In response to these environmental concerns, a promising alternative has emerged in the form of EcoTough cards.
EcoTough cards are made from a 20% recycles plastic and are fully recyclable, durable, tear-resistant and waterproof. They can also be written on with a pencil or pen. By opting for EcoTough cards, companies and individuals can actively contribute to reducing plastic waste and promoting a more sustainable future.
The benefits of EcoTough cards extend beyond their environmental advantages. For instance, they provide a unique aesthetic appeal and tactile experience, which can enhance brand image and customer engagement. Many companies are leveraging the distinct look and feel of our EcoTough cards to stand out in a crowded market and convey a strong message of environmental responsibility. Additionally, advancements in technology have enabled high-quality printing and durable finishes on these eco-friendly alternatives, making them competitive in terms of functionality and design.
The adoption of EcoTough cards also presents an opportunity for companies to reinforce their commitment to sustainability and corporate social responsibility. Consumers are increasingly aware of the environmental impact of their purchases and are seeking out more eco-friendly options.
In conclusion, EcoTough cards represent a promising solution to the environmental challenges posed by traditional PVC plastic cards. Through their use of biodegradable, recyclable, and renewable materials, these eco-friendly alternatives offer a lower environmental impact, unique design possibilities, and the opportunity for companies to demonstrate their commitment to sustainability. While challenges in durability and functionality remain, ongoing innovations in materials and manufacturing processes are closing the gap, making EcoTough cards an increasingly viable and attractive option for a wide range of applications.
